You all are welcome anytime..!
We have lots of room, maybe we could have a "reunion" every once in a while (maybe in different parts of the country every year?)... Is there something like that already coordinated?
I slept better last night, and this morning seems to be a little better (tingles wise).
The new meds I got (OTC) seem to temper it a little.
I will certainly be asking on Monday at Stanford about this?! Also, I can "feel" something on the right tonsil bed (???) like itchy kinda, but swollen too maybe? I think it's just healing and normal, but I may have mentioned 2 of the Dr's I saw are concerned that it has already recurred or that the surgeon didn't get it all.
We'll see...
